PROGRAM manager

Kathleen Garcia

Kathleen was a client of Winter Nights for two months in 2010 as single mother with three children. She has a medical assisting background, but with the recession it was so hard to secure stable employment and keep up with rent and bills. As a Winter Nights client, she obtained full time employment and could move into permanent housing. That employment didn’t work out, but she started her work at Winter Nights as a site supervisor in the fall of 2012. Since then, she has worked every shift and was promoted to Program Manager in 2019.

day PROGRAM manager

Teri Lundvall

Teri and her family became clients of Winter Nights in its second season, December of 2004. Due to God’s abundant grace and their hard work, they have been stably housed for over 14 years. Most of Teri’s work experience has been in service positions and include licensed funeral director, facilities assistant, and caregiver. Teri began working for Winter Nights in 2009. She returned after working elsewhere for a couple of years and is now in her eighth season. She is grateful for the opportunity to provide hope, encouragement, and support to clients in situations similar to hers.
